Using two-dimensional detectors for X-ray imaging

Abstract

presence of metallic copper, and to cuprite in the orange tesserae. These phases are responsible for both the colour and opacity of the samples. In this context, in addition to the redox conditions in kilns, the relationships between the precipitation of the above phases and differing amounts of copper and lead in the samples were also discussed. Lastly, the similarity of the present results with those already reported in the literature indicates routine glass production processes, notwithstanding their different age and provenance.
